  2. Supercritical steam generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercritical_steam_generator

    A supercritical steam generator is a type of boiler that operates at supercritical pressure and temperature, frequently used in the production of electric power. In contrast to a subcritical boiler in which steam bubbles form, a supercritical steam generator operates above the critical pressure – 22 megapascals (3,200 psi ) and temperature ...

  3. Steam turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_turbine

    The higher cost of turbines and the associated gears or generator/motor sets is offset by lower maintenance requirements and the smaller size of a turbine in comparison with a reciprocating engine of equal power, although the fuel costs are higher than those of a diesel engine because steam turbines have lower thermal efficiency. To reduce fuel ...

  4. Boiler (power generation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_(power_generation)

    A boiler or steam generator is a device used to create steam by applying heat energy to water. Although the definitions are somewhat flexible, it can be said that older steam generators were commonly termed boilers and worked at low to medium pressure (7–2,000 kPa or 1–290 psi ) but, at pressures above this, it is more usual to speak of a ...

  5. Heat recovery steam generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_recovery_steam_generator

    They can use a gas turbine to produce high-reliability electricity for campus use. The HRSG can recover the heat from the gas turbine to produce steam/hot water for district heating or cooling. [1] Large ocean vessels (e.g., Emma Maersk) make use of heat recovery so that their oil-fired boilers can be shut down while underway. [1]

  6. Combined cycle power plant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combined_cycle_power_plant

    Working principle of a combined cycle power plant (Legend: 1-Electric generators, 2-Steam turbine, 3-Condenser, 4-Pump, 5-Boiler/heat exchanger, 6-Gas turbine) The efficiency of a heat engine, the fraction of input heat energy that can be converted to useful work, is limited by the temperature difference between the heat entering the engine and ...

  7. Losses in steam turbines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Losses_in_steam_turbines

    The steam passing through the last stage of turbine has a high velocity and a large moisture content. The liquid particles have lesser velocity than that of vapor particles; hence, the liquid particles obstruct the flow of vapor particles in the last stage of the turbine, and therefore, a part of kinetic energy of the steam is lost.

  8. Westinghouse Combustion Turbine Systems Division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westinghouse_Combustion...

    Westinghouse's experience with land-based gas turbines started as early as 1945 with the development of a 2000 hp (~1500 kW) gas turbine generator set, the W21. It had a thermal efficiency of 18% (LHV).

  9. Velox boiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velox_boiler

    A Velox boiler is a turbocharged, forced circulation, water-tube boiler which utilises an axial flow compressor and a gas turbine. Velox (Latin: "fast") boilers, also known as Velox steam generators, were developed in the early 1930s by the Brown Boveri Company (BBC) of Switzerland. [ 1 ]
